Who in your life has fostered your own sense of purpose, helped you see what you could do and be? Here is my story of these people, teachers in many forms, who have impacted my life with their indelible presence. I invite you to share in my personal recollections and to learn about those who have touched me with their own unique wisdom.

Life’s bouquet is about the beauty of humanity and lessons learned through experience. I have used the analogy of a garden, and have spoken of those who have inspired me as flowers and weeds. Flowers, we often think of as intended, glorious and striking in vivid color. Weeds are the surprises of life, the random whims of nature. I recognize through my own journey of growth, that one needs both flowers and weeds to go forward with a sense of confidence. In Life’s Bouquet I have woven these manifestations of nature within the stories of my past and future. I have shared my stories of growth, of self-doubt and self-discovery.

Perhaps you can find a part of yourself in my stories, and you can reflect upon those who have made an impact in your life. Life’s Bouquet is one person’s story, my story, about how important it is to appreciate the “flowers,” embrace the “weeds,” and enjoy the possibilities that beckon.

This story could easily be yours. You could be the one going through a life changing experience without ever thinking you would end up writing about it, but that is exactly what I did.

Like many people I went through a very painful life changing experience. I took that experience and hid it away like a dark secret. The pain and fear that was my secret was choking the life out of me. Then one day I let that secret out and unlike many, I decided to share my experience with the world. I started to chronicle my experience in a journal and now that chronicle has become my journey. It is my hope that by sharing my experience with you, it will become clear that from every ending there is a new beginning and a fresh journey. I have started my journey and hope that after reading this book you will too.

We all wonder why we are here. Did you know you were divinely created to play out one of the 12 principal roles of Earthly existence? We were each sent to this space / time dimension to fulfill our unique role within our original ‘soul group’ so that we may learn, grow, and move on to other realities.
